A Plea To Thee

A PLEA TO THEE

Hung down,
Open
To bleed my spirit 
Forth.
My life 
Continues
In shocks of pain like
Fire striking
Feet up through limbs 
   And spine to a screaming
Brain,
A cursing anger procedes,
Followed by my guilt-
Ridden soul regretting
My voice lacking gratitude
For the trial
— this one after
   all those others —
For God’s mysterious ‘tho righteous
Reasons
On this path I am passing through…
While given His grace of strength
To endure…Withstand the jolts as 
They keep coming humbling, blessing me,
And stiffened, shocked weak,
I plead, “Lord have mercy.   
Christ have mercy, please. Please.”
